recognize Schizophrenia

recognize SchizophreniaAlthough
an exact definition of Schizophrenia is always a debate to experts ,
there are indications that more evident that schizophrenia is a disorder
that occurs in brain function . In the book The Broken Brain : The Biological Revolution in Psychiatry by Dr. . Nancy Andreasen , said that the current evidence about the attack Schizophrenia is a matter that involves many factors . These
factors include changes in the physical structure of the brain ,
changes in the chemical structure of the brain , and genetic factors .Inside there are billions of brain cell connections . Each cell line as well as a place to continue to receive messages from other cell connection . The
cell connection releasing chemicals called neurotransmitters that carry
messages from one cell line end to end connection to another cell . In the brain that develop schizophrenia , there is a fault or damage to the communications system .For
families with schizophrenia in it , will understand clearly what is
experienced by patients with schizophrenia by comparing the brain with
the phone . In the normal person , the system switches to work with a normal brain . Perceptual
signals that come shipped back perfectly without any interference
resulting in feelings , thoughts , and ultimately act upon the needs of
the moment . In the brains of patients with schizophrenia , the signals are transmitted disorder that had not reached the target cell line .Schizophrenia
gradually formed where the family and the patient does not realize
there is something wrong in the brain in a long time . Slowly damage that eventually became hidden and dangerous schizophrenia . The symptoms slowly it could be acute schizophrenia . The
period of acute schizophrenia is a disorder that is short and strong ,
which include hallucinations , misdirection mind ( delusions ) , and a
failure to think .Schizophrenia sometimes sudden attack . Very dramatic behavioral changes occur within a few days or weeks . The sudden attacks always trigger a rapid acute period . Some people develop a lifelong disorder , but many are able to return to normal life in the acute period . Most
found that they were ostracized , suffering from severe depression ,
and can not function as a normal person in a like environment .In some cases , attacks can rise to what is called chronic schizophrenia . Patients
become savage , lose as a human character in social life , have no
motivation at all , depression , and lack of sensitivity about his own
feelings .Psychiatrists distinguish the symptoms of schizophrenia into two , namely positive and negative symptoms .positive symptomsHallucinations
always occurs when the stimulation is too strong and the brain is not
able to interpret and respond to the message or stimulus coming . People with schizophrenia may hear voices or see things that are not there , or experiencing an unusual sensation in his body . Auditory hallucinations , symptoms usually occur , the patient felt a voice from within him . Sometimes
it felt soothing voice , gives peace , but sometimes the voice told him
to do something really dangerous , like a suicide .Misdirection mind ( delusions ) is a strong belief in something that is sometimes interpreted contrary to reality . For
example , in patients with schizophrenia , the traffic lights on the
highway red green yellow , regarded as a gesture of outer space . Some people turn out to be a paranoid schizophrenic . They always felt being scrutinized , staked out , or about to be attacked.Failure of thinking leads to a problem where people with schizophrenia are not able to process and organize his thoughts . Most people are not able to understand the relationship between reality and logic . Because
individuals with schizophrenia who are not able to set his mind to make
them speak recklessly and can not be captured in the logic . Inability to think result in the inability to control your emotions and feelings . As
a result, people with schizophrenia sometimes laughing to himself or
talking to himself out loud without a care in the world .All
that makes people with schizophrenia could not understand who he was ,
did not dress , and could not understand what it is man . He also could not understand when he was born , where he was , and so on .negative symptomsPatients with schizophrenia lose motivation and apathy means loss of energy and interest in life that make people become lazy . Because patients with schizophrenia only has a little energy , they can not do anything other than sleep and eat .Feeling emotionally blunted make people with schizophrenia to be flat . People with schizophrenia do not have a good expression of his countenance and movements , as if he did not have any emotion . But this does not mean that people with schizophrenia can not feel any sense . They may be able to receive gifts and attention of others , but can not express their feelings .Depression who do not know the feeling of wanting to help and hope , always be a part of life in patients with schizophrenia . They do not feel they have deviant behavior , relationships can not build relationships with others , and do not know love . Feelings of depression is something that is very painful . In addition , the biological brain changes also contribute to depression .Ongoing depression will make people with schizophrenia withdraw from their environment . They always feel safe when alone .In
some cases , schizophrenia attacking young men between 15 and 30 years
old , but most of the attacks occurred at the age of 40 years and above .
Schizophrenia can affect anyone regardless of gender, race , or socioeconomic level . Schizophrenia is estimated as many as 1 % of the number of humans on earth .Schizophrenia can not be cured until now . But with the help of psychiatrist and medication , schizophrenia can be controlled . Recovery does happen sometimes , but it can not be predicted . In some cases , patients become better than before . Relief
of symptoms always appear in the first 2 years after the patients
treated , and gradually became rare after 5 years of treatment . At
that advanced age , over 40 years old , lives with schizophrenia are
treated , the better , given drug dosage will be reduced , and the
frequency of treatment will be increasingly rare .
